This development will create an additional burden on the volume of traffic on Brickhill Drive and Manton Lane, particularly at the peak commuting times. By building on what is currently a car park for Bedford Heights office workers, I am concerned that these people will park on Eagle Gardens, creating issues for access to homeowners properties. This was a frequent issue pre-pandemic, when there was a lack of car parking provision for Bedford Height employees.
I am additionally concerned about the statement about secondary school provision- there is no space for such a facility without destroying nearby green space.
